What the Men Are Doing.

When President James Mcguire. of
the Carpenters union, held his hammer
aloft to strike one more nail in Shiclxler
& Wilson's shop, corner of Sixth and
Cedar, yesterday noon, he was asked to
work ten hours. Mr.. Mcguire did not
hit the nail; he simply quit work. Mr..
Mcguire says about 100 more men
quit work yesterday, and that the other
building trades are ready to come out as
soon as the carpenters call upon them.
All of Grants men on the Exchange;
in South st. Paul, he said, have quit.
except two apprentices, and H. w.
COvingtOn has secured fifteen men di-
rect from the union at $3.50 per day
mine hours) for jobs at Merriam
Park and six more for the North
western Kennel club house at
North st. Paul. Mr.. Covington. the
strikers say has agreed to the nine hour
demand. At the Union stock yards the
superintendent had mounted police ON
hand to guard his wOrkmen against
interference. AT o'clock, however. a
committee waited upon the men. and
they all promised to quit. The council
of the amalgamated building trades met
last night, but did nothing more than
passively sanction the strike. Mr.. john
son said that kilograms have been sent
out to all prominent cities requesting
all carpenters to stay away from this
city, and committee is Watching the

Co.operative Carpenters.


"My policy is to cooperate" asserted
Treasurer johnson, of the Cooperative
Mercantile company, ''and Pm going to
stick to that policy until we have CO.
operative stock company. L say let's
get at it and cooperate, for it will come
to it some time" These remarks were
very favOrably received around the sec
retary's table at Labor hall, and the
secretary said a cooperative car
penterS' association would be soon
formed if the contractors did not soon
yield. Mr.. johnson explained that it is
proposed to organize with capital
stock of about $4,000, and start a CO.
operative shop like the Minneapolis
ceoopers, allowing all who wish to to buy
the stock, but giving each stock
holder only one vote, and re-
qulring as qualification of every
offlcer that he must be practical car
penter. No definite action has been
taken yet. The men agitating it are
Blakeley, johnson and O'Grady. Yes
terday a small contractor named II.
Covlngton wanted to get fifteen men to
work on the nine hours system upon his
Jobs at Merriam Park. st. Anthony
Park and at North st. Paul, and he
made application direct to the union.
Some other contractors, The secretary
said, called and showed some plans,
wanting to sub-let some work, claiming
that they couldn't get the work done in
any other way on account of the nine
hour movement. The, carpenters OBJ
jected, saying that they weren't taking
any Sub-cOntractS.

Their Men Returning.

A visit to Corlies, Chapman Il brakes
factory, at Seven Corners, was made by
reporter yesterday. Mr.. Corlies said
eight OF the thirty men who had left
him had returned, leaving him only ~
short. This factory employs about 1876
carpenters. He attributed the nine
hot-r T movement to the action of a few
agitators, and said all his men were
satisfied. He referred to the argument
of the union that nine hours, shortening
the days work, would give employment
to more men, and have less idle men to
bear the market, and he did
not oppose the argument. The reason
nine hours was impracticable this year.
was that at the outset all work was cal
culated upon ten-hour basis. Mr..
Cor.ies said the striking carpenters
who visited his establishment had NOT
done anything disOrderly.
Mr.. Costello thinks the number of
strikers has been greatly exaggerated.
and gives it out as his opinion that
most of the strikers are those who don't
want to work, and are only transients
in the city, likely to be here to-day and
somewhere else tomorrow. His men.
he said, we're working all right at both

He declared that the farmers have

that they will not stop until equal rights

the fact that the wheat of the Red river
valley paid transportation for 600 miles
when it is but 200 to Lake Superior.
Gen; Pope, Senator Bowen, Messrs.
Erickson, j. E. Childs, John Diamond
and others, made remarks. All agreed
that the interests of both organizations

ana an every train since has been carving

for the next annual meeting has been
left to the executive committee. The
local politicians here all think Nelson's

he means to make himself solid with the
farmers as preliminary to the sena-
torial contest of 1899.

give them credit for their veracity in
this instance) with the wages of other
mechanics in the building trades. AT
the present, the average wages per
hour for nine hours, are: BricklayerS,
40 cents; plasterers, 40 cents; stone
cutters, ID cents; painters, 80 cents;
StonemasonS, 35 cents; plumbers, 40
cents; carpenters, 20 to 25 cents. Let
the business men and the public in gem
eral decidewhich is right. These con-
tractors, for the paltry sum of 2 to 215
cents per hour on the pay of the carpen-
ters would stagnate the whole
OF the building interests 4 OF
the city. And we want to
ask these business men, who do you
derive your trade from; is it from these
monopolists or the working classes? If
the laboring classes were better paid
for their labor, they would live better,
and clothe better, and would strive to
own their own houses and would add to
the prosperity of the country. For labor
is the bulwark of this country, labor is
honest, labor is noble, labor is religious,
and 1.-The laborer is worthy of his hire"
AND we appeal to every right-minded
citizen to judge this matter impartially,
and help us in our struggle; help us to
reduce the hours of labor, so that we
can have more time for the home circle,
more time for self Improvement. better
pay for the hours of labor, so that we
may be enabled to live as citizens of
this glorious union should live; encOur-
age us by being friendly toward us, and
help us by giving us your work.

AN IRISH WOMAN.
She Gets a Cunard Steamer Into
TpOub!e


New YORK, June S.-A Boston special
says: The Cunard Line Steamship
company is having some trouble with
the alien commissioners at this port.
which has resulted in the latter making
a formal protest against the granting
OF clearance papers to the steamer
CephalOnia, due to sail from Boston on
Thursday next. Collector Saltonstall
will hear both sides of the case to-day,
and his decision will be one Of some inn
pOrtance to the transatlantic steam
ship lines engaged in the carriage of
passengers. The CephalOnia's last trip
to Boston brought demented and pen
nilesS woman from Ireland. When the
alien commissioners boarded the vessel
their attention was called to this woman.
They decided to call upon the company
to take the woman back to Ireland, and
informed certain of the officers of that
fact. To insure obedience Commits
Sioner Colend went aboard to see the
ships doctor. He warned the man at
the gang plank not to allow the woman
to go ashore, but when he returned to
point out the woman to the doctor she
had disappeared and could not be found.
The commissioner was mad. He said
that this sort of a thing had occurred
once too often, and hence the applica-
ton for an embargo on the steamer.
The commissioners say that unless the
woman is produced the steamer cannot
get her clearance papers.

luton at the request of the Cincinnati

was adopted indorsing the action of

tested against the denunciation of the
New York Sun by a clique in the
knights of Labor. There is a strong
feeling in the convention in opposition

for trouble. AT the afternoon session ID.

partment directing the dismissal, with
out character, of w. III. Green, the only
colored man that was ever admitted to

Green being put in charge. He did not
give satisfaction, however, and was
sent to Rochester, N. Y. 1t is stated
that his record while there has been
very unsatisfactory, and that had he
been a white man his career in the sig
nal service would have been summarily
cut short long ago, but desire to give
him every possible opportunity to i'm
prove led to his retention until informa

report concurring with its founders for
for establishing it and recommending
the synod to resolve that it's members
will not be allowed to establish
an institution thus in opposition
to the regular Institution. A minority
report recommended the indOrSing of
the seminary. This report was debated
during the rest of the day. l seems
that minority in the synod accuse the
majority of false doctrine and have
established the seminary to educate
ministers, the professors at the regular
seminary of the synod holding, as they
claim, erroneous views concerning con-
version and predestination. The minor
ity have, by informal vote, taken at a
separate meeting held last night. ex-
pressed the resolution to leave the synod
should this seminary be opposed by the
majority and its establishment censured.
1t is openly stated by many that the re-
